Desire Poem by Crystal Tutson

If I told you once I've told you twice,
My desire for him is fierce, it's nothing nice.
My vibes grow easy when I'm in his midst.
I get chills up and down my spine when our lips kiss.
His attention to my body leaves me wanting more.
His gentleness and swagger are things I both adore.
The way he holds me tight against his rhythmic beat,
Makes me warm and fuzzy inside that I craved and desire the heat.
But things have changed and the desire is slipping away.
It's as if he woke up and said "I don't want the desire today! "
I can see the desire in his eyes and the thoughts in his head,
But the consequences will be too much so he ignores me instead.
He looks my way and he peeps my game,
He wants me deeply but yet never calls my name.
His body language tells me that he placed a restraint on his heart,
That even though together it feels right, we're much better apart.
Why can't you remove what was placed there,
So that we can enjoy ourselves with no barriers; bare?
I want to forget how it all started and try to start again.
The only thing blocking us is you're not my man.
What did we get ourselves into or what's so hard to let go?
The mere fact, we desire what we already know.
